New Page for Solar photography

Not for me yet.

But as this caught my attention as well (it is directly related to my Aurora activities so how couldn't it🤓) I am gathering information on this subject of astro photography as well.

This is quite an extraordinary branch of the game. First of all it requires extreme safety precautions. Looking into the sun will very most definitely be the last thing you will see from that moment forward on to the rest of your life. That safety is not something you can build through time. You have to study it thoroughly, it's isn't much but extremely important to get it in place from the first time on your way.
Turn the scope away from the sun, remove the main cap and the scopes for quick alignment and guiding in case they accidentally loose their caps, apply all the filters of which the ERF (Energy Rejection Filter) and your Quark or Herschell Wedge or similar are the most important.
Only then turn the scope into the sun.


Following are the first four video's that will lead you into this form of astrophotography. They are obviously not mine.

The very first to watch for root knowledge of what you are getting into:
Structures, wave lenghts and filters and why a monochrome camera
